Cancer Support France – Sud de France
August
Hello Everyone
August is a bit of quiet month as far as CSF activity is concerned although that doesn’t mean you can put your diary away and forget about us. Arrangements are being made for events leading up to the end of the year. There will be a lot going on but as this is the holiday season, the loose ends have still to be tied up. If necessary, I will send out a mid-month update to keep everyone posted!
Our quarterly CSF magazine Touchlines has come out. A copy has been posted on to the CSF Forum.
Please note that there won’t be a drop-in at Lizzie’s Kitchen in Ille-sur-Têt this month
Wednesday 6 August – Céret – 10.30-12
Our drop-in at Pablos Bar is open for business as usual on the Place Picasso. Book Exchange and a chance to meet friends.
Monday 18 August – Laroque – 10.30-12
Café des Artistes is the location for our second Book Exchange. Come and sit outside in the sun, bring your books or choose a couple to take away with you, buy a coffee and stay and chat with friends.
It is also useful to know that there are always, at each of these 3 locations, trained members who are available to answer your questions in confidence.
